And here’s another super easy ‘what to do with ranch seasoning mix‘ recipe: Ranch Roasted Potatoes, even though I think the name doesn’t fully cover the load.
You see, I found a recipe for basic ranch roasted potatoes over at the Hidden Valley website and, tasty as it looked, I figured I could perhaps do some more with it. Up the flavors a bit.
Oh, and just for the record: this is a not a low-fat dish, but it sure is a crowd-pleaser. That makes it okay, right?
Ingredients:
2 pounds potatoes
3 tbsp oil
2 tbsp ranch seasoning mix
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
2 to 3 tbsp sour cream
2 spring onions
2 oz Parmesan
Directions:
They were a huge hit on J-man’s b’day lunch! Here he was unwrapping his presents.

But back to the recipe…
Peel, wash and cut your potatoes in bit-sized chunks and place them in a casserole.

Mix the oil with the ranch dressing mix and the pepper. Adding lemon pepper instead also works amazing and adds pizzazz.

Mix the seasoned oil with the potatoes. If your ranch dressing contains less salt, sprinkle some over the potatoes.

Put the potatoes in a preheated oven and roast them for 35 to 40 minutes at 375F˚ (190C˚) until golden brown and almost tender.
Gives you plenty time to put 2 to 3 tbsp sour cream in a bowl.

And to chop up the green onions and stir them into the sour cream.

As soon as your potatoes are done you remove them from the oven. But keep the oven warm.

Lightly stir in the sour cream with spring onions. It will melt into the potatoes immediately.

And grate the Parmesan all over the potatoes until it looks like a heavily snow-capped mountain.

Pop the casserole back in the oven for another 10 minutes, until the potatoes are really tender and the Parmesan slightly crunchy.
These were chockfull of flavor and delicious. It’s a fantastic way to dress up plain potatoes!

I use Springpad to save many of your recipes. Do you know why the recipe name does not appear in the title? It just lists it as an unnamed recipe. Your site is the only site that does this as far as I know. It requires that I go to the Springpad site to edit the post. I love your blog and your recipes, so I will continue to Spring them, but would like to see the recipe name instead of having to edit it in.
Can’t help you with that. Have no idea what this Springpad is! I do have a Pinterest button below each recipe.
These were delicious!! We really enjoyed this recipe!
